Amanda Beard and PETA

[grateful1]

How do you hang our flag? linky

How they have it hanging in her photo - linky.

I don't care about the politics behind the ad...at least show some respect.

Am I wrong in how the flag should be hung?

 

[tomthirtysix]

No, you are correct. But, I doubt the flag was in the room when she took the pic. I think it's PETA that's disgraceful (for the ad, among other things), and not so much the naked chick.

 

[Brickhouse]

United States Code Title 4 Chapter 1, Para 7, i.

i. When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union should be uppermost and to the flag's own right, that is, to the observer's left. When displayed in a window, the flag should be displayed in the same way, with the union or blue field to the left of the observer in the street.

So yes....they have it backwards.

PETA is one of the worst organizations out there and I say this as a vegan. I think they do nothing for the "cause" they are promoting. Their recent ad in regards to the Greyhound incident in Canada is a prime example how PETA doesn't get it.

 

[Seanholio]

Given that PETA is an amazing organism of misdirected self-loathing and hypocrisy, I am not surprised when movie stars and other vapid nabobs start telling me that they think animals and humans are equals. I am also not surprised when these same ignoramuses denigrate the country that provides them the right to say the things they do.

They can go pound sand.

There was a flag behind her?

Didn't notice. :sign:

Ditto on the Flag. Just goes to show you this country is going to Hell in a handbag.
Fucking hippies. God made raccoons so we can have cool hats!

Sean, you know they are going to kick you out of norcal if you don't be quiet up there :sign:

Well, I think that they should say it - I disagree with them, but there's nothing wrong with them saying so. It's just not an especially convincing argument.

And Amanda Beard is easy on the eyes - of course, she's not nearly as comfortable "in her own skin" as Laure Manaudou

I kinda got the sense that PETA simply were clueless about properly displaying a symbol of the great nation that provides them with the very freedom to carry on in the manner in which they do.

if you look close enough ... I *think* you can see Amanda's "Beard" :laugh: :blush:

That's about the tamest picture you can find of her. Her ex released a bunch of sex pics and a sextape on the net after they broke up at a meet.

I figured they were just doing the equivalent of flying the flag upside down with the ad.

Who really knows?

MMMMMM.....Good steaks come from happy cows.......happy cows come from California.....!

Well maybe in California, but everywhere else they come from steers, flatlander.

Doc.

I heard sometime back that one of thier founding beliefs is that people should not be allowed to even have any pets. Wonder how many dollars a year are donated by pet owners who don't realize whose charter they are really supporting.

They are so full of sh1t! They knew exactly what they were doing in that ad in regard to the American flag. They're not the fools we make them out to be...don't underestimate these A-Holes for one minute!

Not too sure about that....if the male swimmers shave their body hair to go faster through the water, I would think that the female swimmers would shave as well :whistling: ...ergo, no beard.
